This takeout kitchen has the cheapest lobster-in-the-rough on the Neck. Your beast comes on a tray with melted butter, a fork and a wet wipe for cleanup. The stuffed clams and fish cakes are also very tasty. Find a seat at a picnic table on the back patio and dig in. Don't forget to bring your own beer or wine.
